I'Ve Got Me

I've got me

My mind and body weary from battles past
a fortress of wisdom yet outlast
Former evil returning to 
Destroy and subdue.
My mind alert, in mended form
Forearmed and forewarned.
Prepared and ready
Steadfast and steady
To battle yet once more
the silent , unspoken war.
Sorrow , pain and blood
Faith my protective glove
Solo's wrath a heavy weight
Prepared to face
what seems my fate.
I stand knowing it's horror's
knowing Evil can't be ignored.
Calling to my GOD above
Will I fall or rise above ?
Without fear or fret
Only death can keep me f rom it.
Lord, your will be done
Here I am Lord, the heart of one.
Come what may?  whatever will be
I know God, what can man do to me ?
Let the war begin!
I've got me and what exist within!
